By David Burton, Chief Executive Officer

St Cloud, Minnesota, May 26, 2021--Jefferson Capital is pleased to announce it has achieved a new milestone, having completed the closing of a new three-year $500 million senior secured revolving credit facility, which includes a $35 million UK sub-facility. The transaction was led by Citizens Bank, N.A. as Joint Lead Arranger and Administrative Agent. Capital One and Regions Bank were also Joint Lead Arrangers and Co-Syndication Agents, while ING Capital, First Horizon Bank and East West Bank acted as Co-Documentation Agents.

The new credit facility provides Jefferson Capital with an additional $100 million of borrowing capacity and includes options for further expansion. It complements the financing provided by the company’s recently announced $150 million ABS credit facility provided by Credit Suisse. Together, these new credit facilities allow the Company to continue its 19-year track record of growth and profitability. They also allow for continued expansion of purchasing and servicing in new market segments.
